Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de distribution microfluidique et un procédé de distribution d'une composition fluide à partir dudit dispositif. Le dispositif de distribution microfluidique comprend un boîtier qui peut être connecté électriquement à une source d'alimentation ; une cartouche qui peut être reliée de manière amovible au boîtier ; et un ventilateur relié au boîtier. La cartouche comprend un réservoir destiné à contenir une composition fluide ainsi qu'une matrice microfluidique en communication fluidique avec le réservoir. La matrice est conçue de sorte que sensiblement toute la composition fluide sorte de la matrice microfluidique dans une direction horizontale ou dans une direction orientée vers le bas par rapport à l'horizontale. Le ventilateur est conçu pour générer un flux d'air qui converge avec et redirige la composition de fluide distribuée à partir de la matrice microfluidique dans une direction orientée vers le haut par rapport à l'horizontale.
